What is Dynamic Performance reward?
What is Dynamic Performance reward?
Updated this week

Dynamic Performance Reward (DPR) is a new system designed to reward consistent traders with higher payouts⁠. The new system is launched on the StartTrader accounts whose purchase date is from 19.12.2024.

Here's what you need to know:

Your performance reward can range from 50% to 100%, depending on your trading behavior⁠. The system automatically evaluates how you trade, it basically looks at several factors in your trading history, including:

  • Number of trading days

  • How you manage your account's leverage

  • Your trading experience in the form of the number of payouts

  • How consistent your trading performance is measured by your daily profits and losses

More about the factors is available HERE

Your DPR is calculated individually for each of your accounts where it's active⁠. After each payout, your DPR is recalculated for the new billing cycle⁠. This means you always have a chance to improve your reward percentage. You'll be able to see your current DPR and the factors affecting it in your account dashboard⁠. When DPR is active on your account, you'll need to request payouts for the full amount of your profits⁠. The goal is to encourage consistent, methodical trading and reward traders like you who demonstrate these qualities with higher payouts⁠.


For the better understanding please allow us to explain the logic of Dynamic performance reward on 3 examples

Example 1

Explanation of Trading days impact on the DPR

Imagine there are two customers with the same StartTrader 10,000 USD account with DPR, where Customer A has been actively trading for 27 days and Customer B only for 4 days. For the better explanation, let’s assume Customer A and Customer B never had any payout, their Leverage Control is the same at 74% (which is the result of the lowest Margin Level of the client to be at 1,200), and their Consistency of Daily P/Ls % is also the same at 78%. Such setup will result in different DPR, when Customer A (who has been actively trading 23 days longer than Customer B) will gain DPR of 81% and Customer B only 74%.


Example 2

Explanation of Leverage Control and Consistency of daily P/Ls impact on DPR

Imagine there are two customers with the same StartTrader 10,000 USD account with DPR, where Customer A is opening big volume orders and the customer B is very strict in terms of using the leverage on trading account and only trades in microlots and keeps open only one or two trades at the same time. Based on that, the Leverage control of Customer A is 11% and Customer B 95%. Both Customers are actively trading for 20 days, none of the customers reached the payout on the account and their Consistency of daily P/Ls are also different because Customer A and his larger volume trades results in bigger volatility of customer’s daily P/L as the Customer B who’s trading is less volatile and more consistent. Let’s assume Customer A has a Consistency Daily P/L 60%, but Customer B thanks to his consistency has higher Consistency Daily P/L 89%. Different behaviour of Customer A and Customer B result in lower DPR for Customer A, specifically58% and Customer B reaches 94% DPR thanks to his more conservative and consistent trading strategy.


Example 3

Explanation of Number of Payouts impact on DPR

Imagine there are two customers with the same StartTrader 10,000 USD account with DPR, where Customer A and Customer B are both trading only EURUSD instrument and open the exactly same 3 orders per day, each of a volume of 1 lot and basically their trading profit is the same. The only difference between those two accounts is that Customer A already had processed 3x payouts on his StartTrader account but Customer B didn’t have any payout processed yet. For the explanation of different DP Ratios, let’s consider Number of Trading days in the current payout cycle to be 30 days on both account, both customers score in Leverage control is 74%, and Consistency of daily P/Ls is the same, 78% on both accounts. The system calculated the final DP Ratio for each customer differently thanks to the 3 previous payouts of performance reward, so Customer A has a DP Ratio of 82%, but Customer B’s with zero payouts is lower, 81%.
